The Finest of the Wheat No. 2 ‎#60

60. Trusting, O What Peace!

1 A sailor o’er the trackless deep,
I’m trusting in the Lord;
My Captain will His vessel keep,
I’m trusting in the Lord,
Whatever seas I sail,
However fierce the gale,
I know His mighty love for me
Will never fail.

Refrain:
Trusting, I am trusting,
Oh, what peace, sweet peace;
Trusting, I am trusting till life’s moments cease,
And when His face I see,
I’ll sing His grace so free,
And tell the list’ning angels ‘round,
He died for me.

2 A pilgrim over paths unknown,
I’m trusting in the Lord;
Led by His guiding hand alone,
I’m trusting in the Lord,
His presence is the light
That makes the day more bright,
He gives the happy melodies,
That cheer the night. [Refrain]

3 A sinner saved by grace Divine,
I’m trusting in the Lord;
Eternal promises are mine,
I’m trusting in the Lord.
Here let my soul abide,
Beneath the crimson tide,
Till waking in His likeness there,
I’m satisfied. [Refrain]
